It was a quiet Saturday in the Kaspbrak-Tozier household until the house phone rang.  Eddie got up from Richie and his shared bedroom, much to Richie's protests, and walked into the kitchen to answer the phone.  

"Hello?" Eddie said groggily.

"Hey, Eddie! Get dressed and get your husband up, we're going laser tagging."  Bev's voice sounded in his ear.  She must've been bored because she sounded really eager.

"Who's all going, Bev?"

"Stan, Bill, me, and Ben," she said. " so get Rich up and meet us at the Arcade in an hour."

"Okay, okay. We'll be there." Eddie said, hanging up to get his husband.

Eddie walked into their bedroom where a still-sleeping Richie was.  He took a pillow from his side of the bed and whacked Richie with it before planting a kiss on his cheek.  Richie groaned and rolled over, covering his head with the pillow.

"Richiiieee, you gotta get up! We're going to the Arcade to play Laser Tag." Eddie climbed on top of Richie and started planting kisses everywhere, in his hair, on his ear, on his cheek.  Richie turned to face Eddie with a dopey, half-asleep smile on his lips.  Richie kissed Eddie and sat up.

"Jesus fuck! It's too early for this shit," he said, rubbing his tired eyes.

"I know but Bev wants us there, 'Chee."  Eddie was picking out clothes from his drawer.  Richie got up and hugged Eddie from behind, kissing up to his neck. 

"Not nowww, Richie.  We have to get readdyyy-" Richie stopped, opening his set of drawers and picking out a pair of faded jeans and a pastel purple t-shirt.  

The pair got changed and went into the kitchen, Eddie grabbed two bowls and an apple.  He poured both of them some cereal and began with his apple. 

"You excited, 'Chee? We havent gotten to hang out with the Losers in a while."

"Yeah. But why laser tag?  We're in our 30s, " Richie finished his bowl and was bringing it over to the sink, planting yet another kiss on Eddie's cheek.

"My, My, Trashmouth, you are extra affectionate today aren't ya?"  Eddie said, not complaining.  Richie grabbed the keys, smiling.

"Shut up and get in the car, babe." 

~~Time Skip~~

Richie and Eddie walked up to the Arcade to find the Losers already waiting for them. 

"Jesus guys you took so long, what'd you do? Take an extra 15 minutes sucking each other's faces off?"  Stan said, obviously joking.

"Why, yes, we did, Stan the Man.  Now, are we gonna just stand here or are we gonna play Laser Tag?" Richie said.  They walked in and went into the laser tag room which was currently being managed by a teenager who looked like she could be doing anything else other than this.  

"Welcome to The Palace Arcade, would you like to play one or two games?" the clerk said in a very monotonous voice.

"One game is fine.  We'd like to play a free-for-all, though." Bev said, already having an idea in mind.

"Please step into the room to your left." the clerk said, typing into the computer.

As the clerk went over the directions and regulations, the Losers got suited up, each person's gear lighting up a different color.

Stan was Yellow

Bill was red

Bev was orange

Ben was purple

Eddie was green

and Richie was blue.

They were put into a room with obnoxiously bright paint and zombie decor.  A disembodied voice counted down and they all split up to hide and get the most points.  

It wasn't long until Stan and Bev were out.  Now it was Bill, Ben, Eddie, and Richie.  Richie was walking around, looking for his next opponent when he spotted Eddie crouching behind a barrel prop.  He sat next to him.

"Hey, Eds! Fancy seeing you here!" he whispered, startling Eddie.

"GOD, Rich you scared the shit out of me!" he said, aiming his gun

"Wait! Don't shoot. I come in peace!"

With that, Eddie lowered his gun and Richie pulled him closer, connecting their lips softly. Eddie was taken by surprise but kissed back soon enough, moving his hand to rest in Richie's hair.  Soon, they pulled apart, gasping for breath.  Richie got up, picked up his gun, shot Eddie's vest, and walked away, leaving a very flustered and confused Eddie until he finally got it.  He stood up and screamed,

"RICHIE, YOU ASSHOLE!"
